Dental filling is a filling material (dental restorative) used to restore the function, integrity and morphology of missing tooth structure. The structural loss typically results from caries or external trauma.

Types of Dental Filling:

Gold fillings- Gold inlays are well tolerated by gum tissues, and may last more than 20 years

Amalgam (silver) fillings – These are resistant to wear and relatively inexpensive

Composite (plastic) resins- These are matched to be the same color as your teeth and therefore used where a natural appearance is desired.

Porcelain fillings – These are produced to order in a lab and then bonded to the tooth.

If you have temporary filling,please get it made permanent at

the next appointment, given by your denist.

Temporary fillings won’t last long!
